Borderless fullscreen windowed		See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
Anisotropic filtering (AF)
Anti-aliasing (AA)		Does offer two different scaling methods.
Vertical sync (Vsync)		Active by default.
60 FPS and 120+ FPS		Cutscenes are 24 FPS. Vsync sometimes halves the frame rate. Selecting items in the inventory will be difficult at refresh rates higher than 60. Some puzzles may also break. Limiting the framerate to around 60 fixes this.
High dynamic range display (HDR)		See the glossary page for potential alternatives.
